We are currently deep into summer, but my mind is back in April when I visited Portugal. I’ve visited Lisbon and also the north – city Lagos. My first time in Portugal was about 3 years ago, but I only stayed at the seaside near Lisbon and didn’t really had the chance to see more than just a village we stayed during a surf camp. This time I had the chance to see this Country in a new perspective.
I was obsessed with the people being so nice, pastels, the cliffs on the way to the north, the Miraduras in Lisbon and last but not least the incredible views all around Lisbon. On the opposite side of Lisbon, there is the National Sanctuary of Christ the King with a breathtaking view of the bridge – Ponte 25 de Abril and right next to this huge sculpture, there was a field full of Poppy flowers. I loved it so much that I took this outfit shoot right there. Before visiting Portugal I searched for a summer black- romantic kinda dress and I immediately find it on Asos. A black dress that has a cute belt and is shoulder free. I like it. Hope you do too 🙂

This blogpost is of course a recap of 2018 and a outfit post. I have never worn skirts in winter, especially not short ones, so I decided to make some changes (you know: “new year, new me” :P) so I found the perfect one in C&A. The color, patter and the design just fits me. Anything else on me is the same. Don’t get confused I still got my long hair.

In 2018 I had overcome some stressful challenges at work in the travel agency, been to 3 trips with graduation students which btw where better than mine back in 2009, became an ant for the second time, had to go zip lining, bought 20+ shoes, got a new tattoo, found the perfect makeup foundation, been to Spring break festival for the 5.(and last) time, changed my gym place, finally learned proper skiing, celebrated the 3 anniversary with my boyfriend. And last but not least – traveled to NYC with my sis and my best friend and starting the brand WOWBOW.

In 2019 my goal is simple: Continue! Continue to live, love and create the life I want. With the right people by your side and the willpower everything is possible.

DENIM- the little black dress, the leader jacket, the legging, you name it!..it is the ever green in the fashion industry and always wearable. I wanted to create a fun look with this pair of wide jeans that I bought back in New York from Forever 21. I love them, as they are so comfy and chic. I could wear them with any kind of top, but I wanted create an “all denim” look with a jeans shirt and jeans bow, that I have made and that I will soon add to my WOW BOW collection. It is not done yet but stay tuned as I will launch it. My favourite wedges making the look complete and also make me look taller 😀 so win win!

This blog post is all about my baby! Yes, you see right! My WOW BOW (my baby). It’s my handmade product that I have designed and that I create and produce together with my mom and my uncle.

It’s my very first project that I’ve been working on for many months now..
The idea of it was very spontaneous:
Last year my mom was last minute searching for gifts for Christmas for my boyfriend and my sisters boyfriend. So she decided to get each a wooden bow tie. You could easily find them on Christmas markets in Ljubljana but it was too late to get them, so we had the idea to ask our uncle to make the wooden part and my mom would saw the ribbon.. 3 hours later the bows where made!
After that they made more of these and my mom gave them to all male members in our family circle… I was sure to make something out of it but didn’t wanted to stick only with men bows, as there are plenty of wooden bows on the market. And then the idea came to me. Why make wooden bows only for men? I wanted to make them for women!

After that I took every free weekend to come home and do the design and saw until I had the perfect bowtie and my mom helped me with it. In this process I have transformed them 100 times in order to look the way I want them. My uncle was super fast with making the wooden part of the bow, so it kept me motivated to also do my part. I finally had them done and wanted to share them with the world. The best way was going on a market with handmade products and so did I…
After this positive experience and feedback, it gave me the motivation to keep on going.

My WOW BOW is a family handmade product that is made with lots of love and that teach me a lot in the process of making it. It still does..

Long time no see. Summer is happening and I enjoy it to the fullest. As you see on my Instagram profile I’m jumping from sea side to the mountains and do bunch of other things (WOWBOW post coming soon). However I have manage to take some time and add this outfit into my look book collection. Jeans skirts are a must have and this one especially. It is a white pencil skirt from Boohoo that emphasise my curves perfectly. I have a lot of jeans skirts and wear them all the time. what I also wear all the time are – white clothes. I am obsessed wearing white in summer because it makes me feel fresher. In winter time I mostly wear dark colour as the trends goes that way.

However it is not appropriate to speak about winter time! Summer is not over yet and I’am super excited to go on a final trip to Greece for work and then directly to NYC with my favourite two girls! I can’t wait! 🙂

When it comes to “ladylike” manners I’m the last one who you can compare to. I’m everything, but not ladylike.

In situations where my manners needed to be on the high level, I really have to contain my self to not pull out jokes, because I have the need to bring someone to laugh ( I got this from my father). I like being silly and it is the way I am since my childhood. Don’t get me wrong, I do want to be respected and take seriously, BUT whenever I can, I joke, laugh and be 100% me.

However, I like to dress like a lady, cause’ it gives me the feeling of being an adult. When I do – dress like this, I make sure that the styling is still young and fits my character.

Hope you like it 🌸

P.s.: when you want to make a bubblegum, don’t use Mentos gums, cause’ it won’t work :D!

Long time no see.. Yes, for a reason. My job needs my attention more than ever now as the season of our festivals and trips is here.
We work hard to manage everything till the start, but even if we work extra hours and it get’s hard sometimes, there is always time for fun! And that’s way I love my job! You know how they say: work hard – play hard and that’s totally a motto to live by.

Real fun was last weekend when we did the 6. Spring Break Island festival on Pag island (I have been to the last 5). Me and my girls were there for 4 days and have worked only the first one, so we enjoyed the rest of the days on the island.
I couldn’t wait to come back to the Croatian coast. Every year now when the festival begins, for me also summer begins. On the way to, or from Pag, we always have the tradition to stop by a spot on the road Velebit that has a magical and breath taking view. It would really be a sin not to take some photos there. I was wearing the cutest and dress that brings a little romance out in me and it’s from Romwe. I got along time ago and only waited for the occasion to wear it. For me, this is the ultimate summer dress. I added sandals in light blue and some jewellery to make the look complete. How do you like it??? I mean the romantic view:P

When I got together with the talanted photographer Katja Grobelnik – which took this nice pics, was the start of March.. it was windy, cold and nothing spring-ish. I was sure spring would not come any time soon, therefore the “all black” outfit – apropriet for that time. The look is a mix of new and vintage pieces.

The vintage shirt is from my mom and it’s 30 years old. The Leather pants are from Boohoo, shoes from Stradivarius and the coat from Zara. Black is still my favorite color, even though I like to see colors on me, but feel more elegant and classy when wearing black. It makes every outfit look cleaner.

I know that this outfit isn’t realy spring-ish, but I liked it back then in March as I do now. 🙂
